Redhat Cluster Suite When node power off the service is not migrated

mabombo — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 18:21:09 GMT

I am using the Redhat Cluster Suite (luci and ricci) on my centos 5.4. i have 2 nodes in a cluster.
I had clustered an apache server.
The service is up end running and i can stop,start and switch on all two node.
The problem is when i try to simulate a fault for one node.
For example:

The apache resource stay on the first cluster node.

If i power off the first cluster node (not halt or init 0 but take off the eletric power off), the second cluster node not take the resource.
With the clustat command, the service still running on the first node. But the service is down. The first node is dead.
Only one the first node is join again the cluster the resource goes up on the second node.

Is it normaly ??

For me this it is a big problem

Best Regards

Parse Email upon Arrival

messinwu — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 17:48:49 GMT

Hello Linux Community!

First of all, I want to let everyone know that I've been a long-time lurker and have found this site among other very helpful in fully migrating to Fedora from Windows a couple years ago. I am currently running Fedora 10 and enjoy every minute of it.

Anyway, I have kind of unique project I'm working on. I receive work assignments via email and require me to click a link in the email to accept the assignment. More often than not, the assignment is awarded on a first-guy-to-click-it basis.

My idea is to set up a Gmail IMAP account and have a IMAP client which supports the idle protocol running on my machine, probably in a terminal. Idle support is necessary so that I receive the message immediately upon arrival to the server. Those using push email on their iPhone or Palm Pre are familiar with this concept.

When the email comes in, I have a script or something parse the email, find the URL, and wget the URL so that it is accepted. No need to actually open firefox or opera. Once accepted, they send another email to confirm the assignment was accepted.

I've made some progress, but thought the brilliant minds on this forum could help me further. I've discovered only one linux IMAP client which supports the IDLE protocol. I've tested it and emails come in immediately, sometimes even faster than they appear on the Gmail web browser login screen. The client is called "cone". The files are located in ~/.cone/. My problem is that when a message comes in, a .cache file changes to reflect the "list" of emails, but the actual email's headers are not actually downloaded until I hit Enter within the terminal running cone to download the message. I need to find a way to download the whole message immediately when it's received, then find the URL, then hit that URL with the wget command. When the message is opened, an additional file called 1.tmp is created in this folder containing the whole message.

Anyone have any ideas to help with this project?

Fedora 12 DNS problen

bogdan_bartos — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 16:54:33 GMT

Hi everybody,

I reinstalled my gateway yesterday and it seems like named is causing issues that it did not do before on other versions. I am running named on the external interface to advertise the domains I'm hosting and on the internal and local interface as a caching server.

The named.conf file follows:

Code:

options {

        listen-on port 53 { any; };

        listen-on-v6 port 53 { ::1; };

        directory         "/var/named";

        dump-file         "/var/named/data/cache_dump.db";

        statistics-file "/var/named/data/named_stats.txt";

        memstatistics-file "/var/named/data/named_mem_stats.txt";

        allow-query { any; };

        query-source address * port 53;

};



logging {

        channel default_debug {

                file "data/named.run";

                severity dynamic;

        };

};



view "localhost_resolver"

{

        match-clients           { localhost; 10.0.0.1; 10.0.0.0/8; };

        recursion yes;



        zone "." IN {

                type hint;

                file "/var/named/named.ca";

        };



    zone "MY_REV_IP.in-addr.arpa" {

        type master;

        notify no;

        file "named.rev.domains";

        allow-query { any; };

    };



    zone "domain1"{

            type master;

            file "named.domain1";

            notify no;

            allow-query { any; };

    }; 



    zone "domain2"{

            type master;

            file "named.domain2";

            notify no;

            allow-query { any; };

    }; 



    include "/etc/named.rfc1912.zones";

};



view external {



    match-clients { any ; };

    recursion no;

    

    zone "." IN {

        type hint;

        file "/var/named/named.ca";

    };



    zone "MY_REV_IP.in-addr.arpa" {

        type master;

        notify yes;

        file "named.rev.domains";

        allow-query { any; };

        also-notify { ISP_DNS };

    };



    zone "domain1"{

            type master;

            file "named.domain1";

            notify yes;

            allow-query { any; };

            also-notify { ISP_DNS };

    }; 



    zone "domain2"{

            type master;

            file "named.domain2";

            notify yes;

            allow-query { any; };

            also-notify { ISP_DNS };

    }; 

};

Also, here is one of the domains config zones:

Code:

$TTL 604800

domain1.    IN      SOA  ns1.domain1.  hostmaster.domain1. (

    200911200; serial

    86400 ; refresh

    7200 ; retry

    1209600 ; expire

    604800 ) ; default_ttl

    IN A        MY_PUBLIC_IP

;

; Name servers for the domain

;

    IN NS                ns1.domain1.

    IN NS                ns2.domain1.

;

; Mail server for domain

;

        IN MX        5        mail

;

; Nodes in domain

;

node1                IN A                MY_PUBLIC_IP

ns1                IN A                MY_PUBLIC_IP

mail                IN A                MY_PUBLIC_IP

radio                IN A                MY_PUBLIC_IP

cubemail        IN A                MY_PUBLIC_IP

node2                IN A                MY_PUBLIC_IP

ns2                IN A                MY_PUBLIC_IP

;

; Aliases to existing nodes in domain

;

www         IN CNAME        node1

ftp         IN CNAME        node1

I will attach also the /var/log/maillog section where you can see the domains and if you look, you will notice that named sends notifies on the external "view", so the ISP DNS should receive the advertisements.

Code:

If I do a query from kloth.net (for example), the DNS is answering, but for some reason is not advertising the domains. The iptables rules are the following:

Code:

If I do nslookup at the provider I'm getting:

Code:

nslookup domain1

;; Got SERVFAIL reply from ISP_DNS1, trying next server

;; Got SERVFAIL reply from ISP_DNS2, trying next server

Server:                ISP_DNS1

Address:        ISP_DNS1#53



** server can't find domain1: NXDOMAIN

But when I nslookup for it locally or on the internal interface, it answers:

Code:

nslookup domain1 127.0.0.1

Server:                127.0.0.1

Address:        127.0.0.1#53



Name:        domain1

Address: MY_PUBLIC_IP

I tried to do DNS query from outside to yahoo.com and it refuses, so it is not a public DNS, that is fine as in the configuration. So, here, it behaves as it should. I will also attach the log for it:

Code:

Nov 20 09:50:46 server_name named[9706]: client 88.198.39.133#16791: view external: query (cache) 'yahoo.com/A/IN' denied

I don't know if my DNS is sending advertisements. How can I check? Can anybody help me? My domain has been down for more than 24 hours and I'm losing e-mails. LOTS!

Thank you...

Change a permission on a folder/directory

stuarty1874 — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 16:06:29 GMT

Guys, apologies for the newbie question but...

How do I permission a folder?

I have a group called serveradmin

I want to add and give the group server admin write permissions to folder /logs

I know how to permission a file.. but changing the folder permissions isn't coming to me.

I must add that I don't want to remove any of the current permission on the folder/directory.

Thoughts?

No GUI download

calicojack42 — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 16:00:30 GMT

I need to emulate a RHEL environment for testing on a SunVM. Given that Fedora or CENT are free, I need a copy of it. The problem is I cant seem to find a version without the GUI to install. I figure the download would be much faster if gnome/kde weren't involved. Anyone know of a no-GUI ISO to download?

Trouble with second IP on same nic

sheslostcontrol — Fri, 20 Nov 2009 03:08:43 GMT

OS: RHEL 5.3
Poweredge 2490 server

Currently have a single cable running into one nic card (eth0). For the past two years this was configured to handle two IPs under eth0:

Code:

1.1.1.1 and 

1.1.1.2

Tonight I discovered that 1.1.1.2 no longer works. Pinging 1.1.1.2 fails, even though the profile is checked and activated under Network Configuration in the gui. Pinging 1.1.1.1 returns satisfactory replies.

Code:

x  Active  eth0 live         Ethernet   [1.1.1.1]

x  Active  eth0 dev Ethernet   [1.1.1.2]

Both IPs are static, and the IP Address Settings are identical (except for the address) across both profiles:

Code:

nick: live

Address: 1.1.1.1

Subnet Mask: 255.255.222.0  (This is the correct subnet mask, as 1.1.1.1 works fine)

Default Gateway: 1.0.0.1



nick: dev

Address: 1.1.1.2

Subnet Mask: 255.255.222.0

Default Gateway: 1.0.0.1

No routes are configured and both profiles are configured for hardware device eth0.

Suggestions on where to look next?

Is nouveau driver enabled in Fedora 12?

MTK — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 23:34:50 GMT

I just upgraded to Fedora 12 and I have an Nvidia graphics card. I wonder if nouveau is enabled now, because I don't know how to find out.

The only thing I know is that desktop effects cannot be enabled.

And I wish not to have to go with Nvidia's driver because it has it's own settings that take over the os's, and it's proprietary.

OpenVPN - CPU Pegged out

ericl42 — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 20:10:49 GMT

Hello,

I am configuring OpenVPN to act as a SSL tunnel for a remote location. I have OpenVPN1 at our current location acting as a server then OpenVPN2 at the other location that is acting as a client but is also acting as a DHCP server to machines behind it so they are basically connected to the local LAN. Everything is set up fine and I can talk from location A to location B with no problems like everyone is local. I am however having some performance issues. OpenVPN1 CPU is pegged to 100% the entire time I am copying or doing any type of activity through the tunnel. I expect some CPU usage going up but nothing like this. It's really killing my performance. OpenVPN1 is running in ESX right now with 2 gig RAM and 2 procs with unlimited bursting capacity. I am using AES-192 encryption with a 1024 key and udp as the protocol without compression. I have also tried with compression and it didn't make any different. Any idea how I can get my CPU down on OpenVPN1 and my download/upload speeds higher between the tunnel? Thanks.

XServer config on RHEL5 Server and Nvidia NVS290 vid card

itguy12 — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 14:33:14 GMT

Hello,

I have just installed RHEL5 Server on a PC for testing which has an nVidia NVS290 graphics card. The install went fine, but after install I just get to the command line login prompt, and receive no GUI video. Can someone help me with configuring my XServer, or whatever needs to happen to get this up and running? Thanks!

format is off when printing

offers — Thu, 19 Nov 2009 14:29:31 GMT

we have an application running under linux that prints out some reports. Currentrly we had to change the printer and this is when the formatting of these reports went off (it looks like it should be printed on a wider size pages). We changed the printer back to an old one but the formating is still wrong. Any help???
